intercooler setup
« on: August 11, 2004, 04:09:00 pm »
I've been trying to figure out how I'll do my intercooler setup.
Would there be any reason not to do an intercool that sits against the hood and draws air through a hood scoop - other than looks?
It seems it would be easier to plumb and mount.
Thx in advance - Rich

not as effecient a method of cooling as a simple front mount...

will heatsoak sitting on top of the engine...

you'll have to cut a silly hole in your hood ;)
